For those missing Paris
 
Gary Moore is from North Irland (Belfast and is a great gutarist , singer, almost unknown in the USA. I play the album with this song of Paris on it in the morning when
I'm dressing. I went to youtube to see if anyone put it on film with scenes of Paris..and Voila!
I hope you enjoy it.

Surfergirl I will depart in October from Paris, but I will spend few days there.

My sister and cousins live in Provence,therefore Paris or Rome are for me the cities of arrivals or departures.

Fodorite018 Jul 25th, 2009 02:56 PM

Thank you! We were just back in Paris last month, and yes, we miss it already, lol! This is prompting me to get my pics finished up:)

cynthia_booker Jul 25th, 2009 03:19 PM

Thanks so much for posting this. Lovely.

crefloors Jul 25th, 2009 05:05 PM

Oh that was so beautiful, it almost brought a tear to my eye, literally. Thanks.

cigalechanta Jul 25th, 2009 05:51 PM

Oh How I envy you all, soon all going. I was hoping to go again in the fall but Pastis's surgery and my furnice and other house disasters has taken that away.
Hopefully next year.

kismetchimera Jul 25th, 2009 05:57 PM

How Pastis is doing Cigale? I will think about you when I go to Provence...I will have a Toast for Both of you.

My cousin rented an apartment for a week at Grau du Roi, a small charming fishing village in La Camarque..We were there for a week years ago.

Also I will be visiting with my little sister that Lives near Uzes before departing for Nice, on our way to Cinque Terre.

cigalechanta Jul 25th, 2009 06:23 PM

well, kismet he is still licking where the stitches were so I wrapped his leg so he couldn't lick it raw. Today I gave him A BATH and am now distressed, I noticed his other leg has a huge patch of his fur missing!!!

kismetchimera Jul 25th, 2009 07:28 PM

Perhaps the shampoo that you are using is too strong..When Spike my Late beautiful Yorkie,was a puppy he used to have dry skin Problems, we used Neutrogena Tar Shampoo,(people shampoo) for a long time.

It worked wonder..

cigalechanta Jul 25th, 2009 07:51 PM

kismet, I have been using the dog anti-itch shampoo but wiilling to try your suggestion..Thank you
My previous dog was a yorkie an died at 18 years old. never had a problem til he died of old age.

Kyliebaby3 Jul 25th, 2009 08:21 PM

That was so cool! Thanks for posting.

MelJ Jul 25th, 2009 09:01 PM

Hmmm, I replied early today to say I'd posted this on Facebook (giving credit to you, Mimi) but it isn't here. Anyway, thanks for the wonderful reminder of just why I love Paris so much. October can't get here soon enough!

abranz Jul 25th, 2009 10:16 PM

Nice. There are rarely enough photos of the beauty of Paris in the rain.

avalon Jul 26th, 2009 01:37 AM

Ah Mimi! Thanks so much. I have a DVD you might like to see, Paris vu du ciel. I've been sending it around among friends. PM me at OPF with your address and I'll send it to you.

Wow! Headed back in September for 2 weeks. I'll be sending this to my traveling companions.

Efoss3 Jul 26th, 2009 05:37 AM

Thanks for giving us Paris, Mimi! I hope Pastis heals perfectly- he's a lucky dog, having you to look after him. I hope you will get to Paris before too long.

Biz, Evelyn

Paris is an awesome place. I was there in 2005 and I thoroughly look forward to returning there. Thanks for the post on youtube.

cigalechanta Jul 26th, 2009 08:13 AM

Avalon, thanks for the offer but I have seen it.
I'm at hotmail.com. What is OPF?

timsmom Jul 26th, 2009 08:20 AM

Thanks for the video and the song. I just returned on Monday, I'm watching the Tour de France final stage and thinking that I was just walking along the course and climbing the Arc de Triomphe about this time last Sunday!

Thanks again for the memories.

kerouac Jul 26th, 2009 08:42 AM

OPF = Our Paris Forum, Truffaut's place.

I am in Paris and confess that I watched it all on television.

TPAYT Jul 26th, 2009 08:51 AM
